I am assuming (always hopeful) that you have normal TCP/IP setup running
with minimal (zero) fail error messages during bootup. This was a
trial for me as some of the data entry fields would have a label like
"Name" or "Host", which could be any of half a dozen things. The
number of possible combinations for random experiments are huge.
Anyhow, the following is my /etc/samba/smb.conf file. It allows a W2K
box to "see" a home directory [homes], browse the full filesystem
[allfiles], and use my LaserJet printer. At one point, Yast2 screwed
the file and could no longer work with it, so I had to hand-build this
one from examples, then tinker with it in Yast2. I do not know if it
could be done better, so treat it with caution.
If you are still having probs with TCP/IP or PPP (internet modem), drop
us an email, and I will show you how I managed to get working. There
is an ugly tie-up between Internet & LAN config'ing which can cause
probs.
Anyhow here's /etc/samba/smb.conf, ignore any cut/paste line wrapping.
The word SECAD comes from our bizz name, Secad Systems. Gordon is the
other half of it.
